I put in my two weeks last week (a little over two weeks because I like my team). I received an offer at another company that was a 20% pay increase and had three weeks more PTO.
My current employer basically said they couldn’t touch that offer and “hoped to retain me.” The resignation came shortly thereafter.
In my place, the company brought over TWO internal transfers, both of whom make more than I do (it’s one of those orgs that have clear salary band breaks by title). Days previously, they said there was no way to bring more resources into the department—this was something I brought up consistently over the past few months and doing so earlier may have convinced me to stay. But now, f it.
Guess who gets to train the two new team members? This guy.
Guess who is going to play video games and watch Bob’s Burgers whenever training is not taking place (about six hours a day)? THIS GUY!
I’ve worked my ass off to get improving sales numbers over the past year while the rest of the division is plummeting. Time for my productivity to plummet as well.
